Feb2018

"Chef's Table" tours will run in India. Each six-day trip includes luxury car transfers, private culinary walking tour, visit to the local market and a cookery workshop at a locals home, private organic farm experience, visit to the famous spice market, and selection of dining experiences from the different regions of India in addition to a tasting menu at Masala Library.

Delhi has learnt to preserve its cultural history, appreciate distinctiveness and create a spirit of its own- whilst becoming the heart and treasured capital of the nation. It is a bustling metropolis, which successfully combines in its folds - the ancient with the modern. Amidst the fast spiraling skyscrapers the remnants of a bygone era in the form of its many monuments stand as silent reminders to the region’s ancient legacy.

Through years of cultural interaction, many joints have opened up which offer not only a taste of authentic Dilli food but are considered landmarks on Delhi’s culinary map. These places, along with their special secret recipes, have been handed down through generations.
